Got a new Aviator Flying Tank today (in replacement) after a failed attempt to get my original order. It is quite nice. Oddly, this one doesn't have a screw-down crown (ok with me though).

The Invicta is quite impressive. It is very robust and feels quite heavy in my hand. It looks to be very nicely made and it has a solid looking screw-in (exhibition) case back. The bracelet even has solid end pieces. I can actually read the date too. The crown is a bit too small, but I guess you can live with that considering the price and how well this appears to be made. I have to tell you, this is a lot of watch for the money you can get it for right now on Overstock.com.

I should note that the lumn is not much considering this is a dive watch. It is more acceptable as a dress watch, but not enough for a dive watch. And, on mine the bezel DOES turn very smoothly gripped with tumb and index finger. Makes a very nice ratchet sound. In fact, it smoother than any Invicta I have tried since my 2014! Its not as precise, mind you, but still very smooth.
